The way a lie hurts a serious relationship. And why people "feel" they must lie.

Like I've mentioned before, we all lie, as well as in different manners, and not to mention we all define the word "lie" differently. Gail Saltz explains how and why a person feels the the need to compel a lie.

In this article, the author is explaining how lying gestures mean something, as well as the way a person's speech is. On the average, the effectiveness of uncovering a lie ranges from 45% to 70%. In most cases the suspicion that someone is lying can improve revealing the truth. I thought it was very interesting how they had an experiment where people went about their everyday lies, and still a few came out with a lie. I just don't understand how we can take something so small and stretch it to something large and grand, and for what? Is it the attention? Or is is the deception we want others to grasp upon? It stated that women are consistently more accurate than men at detecting lying and what the underlying truth really is. I was surprised to find out that women actually do fall for a man's lie more than vise versa. This article gave many small reason as to why people, and what was funny is that I, myself have heard them almost everyday or quite frequently.

Meade, the author, discusses the difference in lying when it comes to the opposite sex. She also discusses how growing we were not able to understand the differences in the types of lies.
